The destiny of all heavens begins in the Red Chamber

Lai Er, who seemed to have gained confidence from who knows where, was suddenly whipped so hard that his cheek was covered in blood. He screamed and fell backward.

The other gatekeepers didn't even have time to react before they saw the silver snakes dancing wildly in front of them, and were instantly blinded.

The next moment, a strong wind howled, sweeping past with fierce power.

All that could be heard were incessant screams of agony. The men, who looked like they were not to be trifled with, didn't even have time to react before their bodies and faces were covered in horrifying bloodstains. They collapsed to the ground amidst a cacophony of howls.

"What kind of trash dares to act so arrogantly in front of the Grand Steward of the Ning Mansion!"

After retracting the nine-section whip, Jia Huan spoke calmly, his tone as if he were discussing a trivial matter.

But to the servants of the Ning family who were not far away, it was nothing short of intimidation.

The previously noisy clamor vanished instantly, and all the servants of the Ning family wore expressions of disbelief and fear.

What did they see? When did the Third Master Huan from the neighboring mansion become so powerful?

"Qiang-ge'er, what brings you in? Where's Lai Er?"

No one knew what was going on in the main house. Despite the commotion outside, it didn't attract any attention inside. But as soon as Jia Qiang went in, he was noticed.

His voice was hoarse, filled with shock, anger, and displeasure.

Qiang-ge remained silent, while Jia Huan strode inside.

The scene inside the room made him subconsciously squint his eyes, concealing the cold glint within.

Jia Zhen, who looked rather unwell, was reclining on a specially made recliner, surrounded by several burly men whose江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry) aura was all too familiar to Jia Huan.

Jia Rong collapsed in front of Jia Zhen with a bloody head wound. Fortunately, his chest was still rising and falling, otherwise it would have been easy for people to suspect that he had been beaten to death.

Qin Keqing knelt on the ground, her face pale. In front of her was a tray with a pot of wine and a white silk ribbon on it. The scene looked very familiar!

To Jia Huan's surprise, Granny Lai and two maids were standing in the corner!

At this moment, Jia Zhen was looking fiercely at Jia Qiang, completely ignoring Jia Huan who came later.

They probably don't recognize him, given how much Jia Huan's physique has changed in the last two years.

shhhhhh...

Jia Huan didn't hold back at all and casually tossed out several copper coins.

If you strike first, you will be stronger, if you strike later, you will suffer disaster!

The martial arts heroes who were protecting Jia Zhen never expected to encounter a master of hidden weapons like Jia Huan at the Ning Mansion. Before they could even react, a copper coin was embedded in their foreheads and eyes.

what……

The piercing screams were earth-shattering. The four martial arts masters, who were quite famous in the martial arts world, didn't even have time to dodge before they were all hit.

However, Jia Huan's wrist strength was insufficient at this time, and he was not yet able to deliver a fatal blow.

As a result, the four martial arts masters who were suddenly attacked ended up with terrifying appearances, their heads and faces covered in blood, which terrified Jia Zhen and Granny Lai.

hum!

The nine-section whip, over ten feet long, danced and spread through the void like a silver snake, instantly encircling the necks of the four martial arts masters whose faces were covered in blood and who were wailing in agony. Then, the mournful wails abruptly stopped.

"Brother Qiang, what are the backgrounds of these powerful men?"

Jia Huan withdrew the blood-stained nine-section whip, ignoring the shocked Jia Zhen and Granny Lai, and asked in a slow voice, "How dare you come to the Ning Mansion to cause trouble? You really don't know what's good for you!"

"Yes, yes, Huan-ge, you're right. These guys are really courting death!"

Upon seeing the four martial arts masters now dead, Jia Qiang was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted and roared, "Guards! Why aren't you taking these four thugs who dared to force their way into the Ning Mansion away?"

Soon, several servants timidly entered the room and quickly took away the four corpses.

At this moment, Jia Zhen, frightened by the smell of blood, stammered, "You, you're Huan-ge'er from the neighboring mansion? How could that be?"

His face was beyond pale; it was ashen.

He knew that the consequences of this failed raid on the Ning residence would be dire.

"Tsk, Brother Zhen, do you know what you're doing?"

Pointing to the unconscious Jia Rong on the ground, Jia Huan coldly said, "You've seriously injured a first-class general appointed by the imperial court. Just wait for the court's swift and decisive actions!"

Ignoring Jia Zhen, who instantly slumped into the specially made recliner, Jia Huan turned his gaze to Granny Lai and chuckled, "You old hag, whatever your reason, you can choose one of the two items on the tray!"

"You can't do this, I'm a supporter of the old lady..."

Granny Lai looked terrified and suddenly screamed, but a copper coin shattered her mouth and teeth. The intense pain immediately caused the old woman to faint.

"If you don't want to die, do as I say!"

Looking at the two maids who were following Granny Lai, Jia Huan's eyes were cold and his tone was fierce: "Pour this old hag down the wine in the tray, and you can be spared!"

The two maids, who were already pale with fright and swaying precariously, snapped to attention when they heard Jia Huan's angry shout. They exchanged a glance and then staggered over to Qin Keqing.

First, he helped the distraught Qin Keqing up, then picked up the wine pot on the tray and walked towards Granny Lai. With each step he took, his body trembled, clearly indicating that he was extremely frightened.

A short while later, the unconscious Granny Lai let out a muffled groan, then struggled violently for a few moments before spitting out black blood and dying.

"Have someone take them away and send them to a remote village. Don't let them come back!"

True to his word, Jia Huan directly instructed the dazed-looking Qiang Ge'er, "Don't misunderstand me!"

Qiang-ge'er nodded repeatedly to indicate that he understood, and then called over a few maids from the Ning Mansion. Amidst the two maids' repeated thanks, he took the person away and made arrangements.

"Wow, Uncle Huan, save me!"

Just then, Qin Keqing, who had been in a daze, suddenly came to her senses, scrambled to Jia Huan's side, grabbed his right foot, and cried out loudly.

This……

Jia Huan was rather embarrassed. Although Qin Keqing was voluptuous, this was not the time for such fantasies. He turned back and gestured to Qiang Ge'er, saying helplessly, "Don't worry, Rong Ge's wife, everything will be fine!"

"Wow, Master Zhen said he's going to kill me to prevent me from bringing disaster to the entire Jia family!"

Qin Keqing showed no sign of letting go, and cried loudly, "Rong-ge'er only said one sentence, and he's been beaten like this. I don't even know if he's dead or alive!"

Tsk, judging from your crying, there's not much hatred in it. Has the relationship between the couple deteriorated to this extent? Jia Rong is truly a useless piece of trash!

Of course, he wouldn't say something that would spoil the mood.

Therefore, Jia Huan took his seat in the main hall of the front courtyard of the Ning Mansion to oversee the follow-up matters.

Not to mention Qin Keqing was so frightened she almost lost her mind, Jia Qiang had no idea how to handle the situation and could only bite the bullet and beg Jia Huan to stay and help.

While they called it helping, it really meant stabilizing morale.

Who could blame them when Jia Huan acted so decisively and ruthlessly, and the small martial arts school's men also arrived?

All entrances and exits of the Ning Mansion were sealed off, and no one was allowed to come or go. Then it was time to get to the bottom of things. I wonder why Jia Zhen suddenly came like this.

The result was simple, yet extremely bloody and cruel!

Jia Zhen is a very straightforward fellow; he spoke his mind and said everything.

He was unwilling to spend his old age in a village outside the city and die a miserable death.

He wanted to return to the Ning Mansion and continue enjoying himself; even if half of his body was paralyzed, it wouldn't be a big deal.

If it were just him, being constantly monitored by the Ning family, any attempt to turn the tables would be a pipe dream.

But now the opportunity has come. Granny Lai takes the initiative to find him and reveals a shocking secret.

As it happened, Jia Zhen was quite knowledgeable about this, and they quickly reached an agreement and joined forces.

Without a doubt, Granny Lai personally took action because she was acting on the orders of the old lady.

No one knows where the old lady got the information, but the current emperor is starting to purge the remnants of the deposed crown prince.

After making a brief inquiry into recent events in the court, what seemed like a strange turn of events to Jia Huan was crystal clear to the old lady: the emperor was indeed systematically eliminating the remnants of the deposed crown prince!

The old lady panicked, fearing that the Rong family and she would be implicated!

The main issue is that Qin Keqing's identity was too sensitive at this time.

Just then, the old lady knew that Jia Zhen was still unwilling to accept this, so she sent Granny Lai to take matters into her own hands.

Jia Zhen was a ruthless character. In order to ensure his future enjoyment would not be disrupted, he still planned to get rid of Qin Keqing, this troublemaker, despite his displeasure.

What happened next was quite simple. With the help of an inside agent in the Ning Mansion, Jia Zhen returned easily and took control of Jia Rong and Qin Keqing.

Although Jia Qiang managed to escape, he didn't care.

Jia Zhen was a vicious and tyrannical man, and his nature became even more cruel because of his paralysis on one side of his body.

Jia Rong, the emperor's own son, was beaten into a state of mental disability the moment he showed even a hint of dissatisfaction!

That's right. The two renowned doctors from the small martial arts school were invited to jointly diagnose Jia Rong's condition, which was that his brain had been damaged by the beating, and he had become demented.

As for whether it can be restored, the two said it's up to fate.

What else is there to say? The news was immediately blocked.

Regardless of Jia Qiang and Qin Keqing's thoughts, they both wanted to keep the title of First-Class General of Ning Mansion. Once the news was exposed, who knew what the Emperor would do?

In addition, we also have to be wary of the old lady from the next house causing trouble, don't we?

They both spoke very frankly: if possible, they hoped Jia Huan would become the head of the Ning Mansion and inherit the title, and neither of them wanted Jia Baoyu to take the credit.

Do these two guys even have any brains?

At such a critical moment, they still knew to make empty promises to Jia Huan, hoping that he would stand firmly on the side of the Ning Mansion. As for the title, it was absolutely impossible for it to fall into Jia Huan's hands.
